Komer → = Kemah ? (centre of Kemah district, Erzincan province)

Evidently, for some reason the author confused Kömür/Kömürköy (a village in Kemah district), with the centre of the district. That he really visited Kemah can be derived from his description of the location of the place (along the river, Euphrates) and the fact that it was the seat of a kaymakam, or district governor.
